I love pulling together tangents that don't obviously belong together. That's why, in honour of Halloween (yesterday) I did a bit of research into the correlation between fear and brand thinking.

Crazy? Actually, I was surprised by how MUCH correlation there was.

If you want the whole story, check out this interview. I spent an hour on the air with CFAX's Mark Brennae, going through everything from the Marquis de Sade and the 1755 Lisbon Earthquake to why people reach for a Coke in a slasher movie.

Fascinating stuff! Enjoy...
